Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. We show that there exists a subspace of $B(H)$ which is isometric to $\ell_2$ and completely isometric to its antidual in the sense of the theory of operator spaces recently developed by…
We study best approximations to compact operators between Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces, from the point of view of Birkhoff-James orthogonality and semi-inner-products. As an application of the present study, some distance formulae are…
A Banach space $X$ has the $2$-summing property if the norm of every linear operator from $X$ to a Hilbert space is equal to the $2$-summing norm of the operator. Up to a point, the theory of spaces which have this property is independent…
As a class of compact operators on the $\ell^2-$valued Bergman space $A^2_\alpha (\mathbb B_n, \ell^2)$ on the unit ball $\mathbb B_n,$ we study Toeplitz operators with $BMO^1_\alpha (\mathbb B_n, \mathcal L(\ell^2))$ operator-valued…
An operator $T$ from a Banach lattice $E$ into a Banach space is disjointly non-singular ($DN$-$S$, for short) if no restriction of $T$ to a subspace generated by a disjoint sequence is strictly singular. We obtain several results for…
We prove that every proper ultrametric space isometrically embeds into $\ell_p$ for any $p\geq 1$. As an application we discuss an $\ell_p$-version of nonlinear Dvoretzky's theorem.
For an interpolation pair $(E_0,E_1)$ of Banach spaces with $E_1 \hookrightarrow E_0$ we use vectors $b_1,b_2,\ldots \in E_1$ that satisfy an extremal property with respect to the $J$- and $K$-functional to construct sub-spaces that are…
In topological equivalence, a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces - we focus on the case of Hilbert spaces - is viewed as only acting linearly and continuously between them qua different spaces with the structure of linear…
A major open problem in the field of metric embedding is the existence of dimension reduction for $n$-point subsets of Euclidean space, such that both distortion and dimension depend only on the {\em doubling constant} of the pointset, and…
We investigate when a map on a selfadjoint operator space $E$ is an embedding, i.e., when its unitisation in the sense of Werner is completely isometric. Combining with results of Russell, of Ng, and of Dessi, the second and the last…
In this paper, we provide an infinite metric space $M$ such that the set $\mbox{SNA}(M)$ of strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions does not contain a subspace which is isometric to $c_0$. This answers a question posed by Antonio…
Isomorphic classification of symmetric spaces is an important problem related to the study of symmetric structures in arbitrary Banach spaces. This research was initiated in the seminal work of Johnson, Maurey, Schechtman and Tzafriri…
We present condition on higher order asymptotic behaviour of basic sequences in a Banach space ensuring the existence of bounded non-compact strictly singular operator on a subspace. We apply it in asymptotic $\ell_p$ spaces, $1\leq…
While the theory of matrix-weighted function spaces is well established, the majority of previous results in the infinite-dimensional operator-valued setting deal with "no go" theorems, showing the impossibility of some prospective…
The isometric embeddings $\ell_{2;K}^m\to\ell_{p;K}^n$ ($m\geq 2$, $p\in 2\N$) over a field $K\in{R, C, H}$ are considered, and an upper bound for the minimal $n$ is proved. In the commutative case ($K\neq H$) the bound was obtained by…
A 1972 duality conjecture due to Pietsch asserts that the entropy numbers of a compact operator acting between two Banach spaces and those of its adjoint are (in an appropriate sense) equivalent. This is equivalent to a dimension free…
The problem involving the extension of functions from a certain class and defined on subdomains of the ambient space to the whole space is an old and a well investigated theme in analysis. A related question whether the extensions that…
We define the notion of isometric envelope of a subspace in a Banach space, and relate it to a) the mean ergodic projection on the space of fixed points of a semigroup of contractions, b) results on Korovkin sets from the 70's, and c)…
Let X be a real Banach space. We prove that the existence of an injective, positive, symmetric and not strictly singular operator from X into its dual implies that either X admits an equivalent Hilbertian norm or it contains a nontrivially…
We investigate some properties of (universal) Banach spaces of real functions in the context of topological entropy. Among other things, we show that any subspace of $C([0,1])$ which is isometrically isomorphic to $\ell_1$ contains a…
